    We have been there quite a few times in the past . Seem to wonder if they changed owners or Chef. The quality of the food was not fresh ! There portions small. Way too much sauce in their pasta dishes !!! Had their lobster special with scallops and shrimp, the lobster was burnt and pressed and dry. They added so much sauce just to cover over their mistakes. Nothing was compensated. I was very ashamed that they even charged me for the full price. After four years of our traditional holiday visit sad to say that I will not be heading there anymore. I am sure as others have complained that same evening about the quality of food.

    We were a group of six women celebrating a birthday and Christmas. it was decorated beautifully, although the amount of decorations were less than last year, but still was very nice. We had multiple waiters that were very attentive to our needs. three of us, had the Pollo Martini over linguini. It was very good, but we were surprised that there wasn't more food. It was one thin piece of chicken and a small amount of pasta. Dessert was delicious with the Tiramisu that was made tableside, and the chocolate lava cake. It did take us asking 3 different times, for the check, but overall it was a great dinner!

    We love this restaurant. Our son loves it because we get food as soon as we sit down, a fresh bruschetta and some delish cheese. We love all of the amazing specials. We barely ever order off of the regular menu because the specials are always so amazing. My husband has the pasta special made in the cheese wheel. Omg so good! My table side tiramisu dessert was like nothing I’ve ever had before. Not your typical tiramisu and totally worth it! The service is the best and the food comes out at a great pace so there’s no long wait between courses. The Christmas decorations are gorgeous. Everything is always perfect here.

    Was there in October of 2024 with friends and had the best restaurant experience I have had in a long time. Service, Food , drinks all were top notch. Was looking forward to another great night with my wife , we traveled from Beacon NY to experience a beautiful evening together. Booked a reservation and had to change to a half hour later in which whoever I spoke to was a gentleman. When we got to the restaurant the hostess was very bubbly and very welcoming. We were seated and within 5 minutes we were greeted by a waitress who asked what type of beverage we would like. That was great with the exception we had no menus to see what was available. She then came back with the menus and then returned a few minutes later and was very pleasant and served our drinks.Our waiter came and explained the added specials and gave us some time. We received our drinks which were very good. An appetizer was placed along with our entree. Another gentleman came by with bread and bruschetta (delicious). Soon after our appetizer arrived and again delicious. And then we wait and wait and wait. An hour and half passes by and we ask for our check as at this point we are extremely disappointed. In the meantime the wonderful woman asked us twice if we received our food and we said not as of yet. Finally our waiter comes back and asks do you a question??? We again ask for our check as we were very disappointed with our wait time. He says let me check and then returns and says your next up. The food comes out and the meat of our meal was done perfectly but the sides were not good at all. I also asked for vodka sauce with my dish and there was no sauce at all. We ate and again requested our check. It was time to go since we were now over two hours in. No apology no comp on at least a drink. A two hour dinner date with my wife is a beautiful day but waiting for a meal for an hour and half after an appetizer is unexceptible.
